In the title compound, C18H22O, the dihedral angle between the carbonyl and benzene planes is 69.11 (6)°. In the adamantyl group, the three fused cyclohexane rings have almost ideal chair conformations, with C—C—C angles in the range 108.14 (11)–110.50 (11)°. No specific intermolecular interactions (other than van der Waals interactions) are present in the crystal.

The title compound was prepared by the reaction of adamantane-1-carbonyl chloride with benzylmagnesium chloride according to the procedure published previously (Vícha et al., 2006). The colorless microcrystalline powder was isolated from a crude complex mixture by
(silicagel; petroleum ether/ethyl acetate, v/v, 16/1). A single-crystal for X-ray analysis was acquired by spontaneous evaporation from deuterochloroform at room temperature.H atoms were found in difference Fourier maps and subsequently placed in idealized positions with constrained distances of 0.98 Å (RCH3), 0.99 Å (R2CH2), 1.00 Å (R3CH), 0.95 Å (CArH), and with Uiso(H) values set to either 1.2Ueq or 1.5Ueq (RCH3) of the attached atom.
The title compound arose from the reaction of adamantane-1-carbonyl chloride with benzylmagnesium chloride as a product of the rearrangement of a starting Grignard reagent. Similar behavior of benzylmagnesium halides has been described previously (Austin & Johnson, 1932). Alternatively, the title compound may be prepared by the reaction of adamantane-1-carbonyl chloride with 2-methylphenyl(tributyl)stannane as Lo Fiego et al. (2009) have described. In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the angle between carbonyl plane P1 (C1, C11, C12, O1) and benzene ring plane P2 (C12–C17) is 69.11 (6)°. Such a large twist may be attributed to the
between the bulky adamantane moiety and the benzene ring. Nevertheless, the carbon of the methyl group in the ortho position is located almost in the ring plane with a deviation of 0.0587 (15) Å. Maximum deviations from the best planes are 0.0229 (13)Å for C11 and -0.0132 (13)Å for C12, respectively. No specific intermolecular interactions were observed in crystal packing.For background to the synthesi, see: Vícha et al. (2006); Austin & Johnson (1932).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The title compound arose from the reaction of adamantane-1-carbonyl chloride with benzylmagnesium chloride as a product of the rearrangement of a starting Grignard reagent. Similar behavior of benzylmagnesium halides has been described previously (Austin & Johnson, 1932). Alternatively, the title compound may be prepared by the reaction of adamantane-1-carbonyl chloride with 2-methylphenyl(tributyl)stannane as Lo Fiego et al. (2009) have described. In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the angle between carbonyl plane P1 (C1, C11, C12, O1) and benzene ring plane P2 (C12–C17) is 69.11 (6)°. Such a large twist may be attributed to the steric hindrance between the bulky adamantane moiety and the benzene ring. Nevertheless, the carbon of the methyl group in the ortho position is located almost in the ring plane with a deviation of 0.0587 (15) Å. Maximum deviations from the best planes are 0.0229 (13)Å for C11 and -0.0132 (13)Å for C12, respectively. No specific intermolecular interactions were observed in crystal packing.
